Slazenger Aero V98 Tour

Has anyone hit with this frame? It's reasonably cheap to buy in the UK and I'm quite tempted to make the purchase but wondering whether anyone has any experiences with the racket? Im not too sure whether it has been released in the US? I noticed that Henman was using this frame the other week at the ATP masters in the Albert Hall; it appears that Jamie Murray and Ross Hutchins also use the frame (albeit probably all use paint jobs).

Many thanks in advance.

Specs? I don't remember Hutchins using one... But that was in February...

The Aero range all feature a 15% wider more elliptical head shape increasing the sweet spot of the racket and more evenly distributing string distribution to provide greater power.

The frame is constructed with 100% premium graphite, Slazengers premium 3K Carbon. This construction features a blend of undirectional and braided carbon, offering an optimal strength to weight ratio with excellent shock absorbtion properties.
